Denali: Alaska's Great Wilderness

Track a year in the life of Alaska's Mount McKinley. Called by Indians "Denali," or "high one," it is the highest mountain in North America. Filmmaker Bruce Reitherman captures all the seasons in this preserved wilderness - from winter darkness, with its temperatures of 60 degress below zero, to the coming of spring with its burgeoning life, to summer with its 20 hours of daylight, and to autumn as the chill returns to the air in mid-September. This land of extreme contrasts is populated by prowling wolves, foraging caribou, hearty Dall sheep, incredible wood frogs and powerful grizzlies, among many others.

Manu: Peru's Hidden Rain Forest

Along the eastern base of the Andes is a great red and winding river named Manu - the life blood and main highway for the Manu Biosphere Reserve. Cascading down from the dry, grassy plateaus at four thousand meters, and falling dramatically into a tangled cloud forest of dwarf trees, giant begonias, orchids and fern, Manu emerges into a spectacular land replete with howler monkeys, skimmers, egrets and macaws. The Reserve offers us a special look at the abundance of life in the rare Amazonian wilderness.

The Repair Shop

The Repair Shop is a workshop of dreams, where broken or damaged cherished family heirlooms are brought back to life.

Furniture restorers, horologists, metal workers, ceramicists, upholsterers and all manner of skilled craftsmen and women have been brought together to work in one extraordinary space, restoring much-loved possessions to their former glory.

Many of these items have incredible stories behind them and a unique place in history: from an accordion played in the Blitz by a woman who is now in her 90s, to a beautifully crafted clock made by a father who was completely blind; a Pinball machine that is currently being used as a kitchen counter, and a Davenport desk with its trademark fake drawers which fooled burglars - and their crowbar.

The Repair Shop is an antidote to our throwaway culture and shines a light on the wonderful treasures to be found in homes across the country.
